Wolverine
Wednesday 10 January – Saturday 13 January 2024
Don’t walk home alone at night, but if you must, carry a set of keys in your fist exposing them between your fingers, to defend yourself. Defend yourself, or evolve, into a Wolverine.
Emma Harrison (choreographer/performer), working with Amy Flannery (composer) and Miranda Wheen (dramaturg), team up in a cycle of transformation that subverts and appropriates feminine archetypes, mythology, wolves, pop culture and self-defence, in a solo work that lives somewhere between dance, cabaret, and performance.
Wolverine is a highly physical work exploring critical notions of gender, power, the pervasiveness of feminine archetypes in human stories and the repercussions of these imbalances on women’s bodies.
